scary....but guys like that are what cause kiting to get banned in areas when they are out of control near beach/people. he was totally out of control.....reminds me of events i saw at Sauvies back when everyone was learning on 16meter 01/02 gear .....not the best stuff to learn on Smile i remember having a kite land on my car when i was at sauvies

I believe that was technically a 1280 since he landed blind (on his ass).

Don't you mean 1260? Or are you adding on that additional 20 degrees after he hit the windsurfing rig? Wink Laughing
